Knife Sheath For Handmade Knife

[jmann8686]

Just wanted to show off my knife sheath that I made for the knife I made. For a little back story on the knife. It started life as a ferriers file I layed out the design I wanted and cut it out. cleaned it up and ground down the file aspect of it. Worked the cutting edge down with a file not all the way to were it was sharp but sharp enough that after the heat treatment process was done it didnt take a lot of effort to get a sharp edge. After it was heat treated found a nice piece of wood and made the handle for it. and found a Brass rod cut three piece to put in the handle as well. worked the handle down to where i wanted it to be. then put a sharp cutting edge on it. Since I finished the knife I needed a sheath to carry it in. So grabbed some leather and got to work on that. Nothing to special about the sheath. The tooling is off a bit casue I did some last min. changes. I was going to stitch it but then decided to do a triple loop lace on it instead so some things are off. But it is for me so I was not going to start over. sorry for the long story. Thanks for looking. Hope you like it

I like it. What would you charge for a knife like that?

I like the effect of the pattern on the knife, looks like a handy knife and the lacing gives the sheaf a great look.

I'm not sure. Never thought about selling them. If you want email me at jmanndesigns@yahoo.com and we can talk about it. And I can show you better pics of it as well

Looks nice!!! Did you file all of the rasp away, or can you still feel it a little?

There is still indentations in the steel but it would not file anything if that's what your asking.

That's pretty cool. And I like the story too. Thanks for the show and tell.
